Huntington Beach is home to 210 licensed electrical contractors (C-10, CSLB September 2026) — #11 in California, about 15% of the 1,389 contractor licenses based here.
Nearby in Orange County: Anaheim (251), Irvine (196), Santa Ana (148), Orange (144).
40% of Huntington Beach's C-10 licensees hold more than one classification — most often B General Building Contractor (27%), A General Engineering Contractor (9%). Extra classifications can change how carriers rate your general liability and workers' comp, so list every license class when you quote.
Business structure: 46% sole owners, 49% corporations, 4% LLCs; median time licensed 17.0 years.
For electricians, underwriters focus first on: service vans and trucks carrying wire, tools and meters; and fire claims traced back to wiring, panels or connections. See the full coverage guide for electrical contractors for limits, endorsements and workers' comp rules.

210 active C-10 licenses have a business address in Huntington Beach (CSLB, September 2026); 44% carry workers' comp and 53% are filed exempt.
If you have employees, yes — California Labor Code 3700 requires it. With no employees you can currently file an exemption, but beginning January 1, 2028 (SB 1455), CSLB will require workers' comp for all active licenses; only joint-venture licenses remain exempt.
